Remarks & Notes

Moonlight over Lombard
At 8:43 p.m. on the night of September 9, 2011, a BNSF coal train curves into Lombard, Montana, under a bright moon. Headlights of the westbound train lights up the rails of the main line and siding, as well as a pile of rail lying between. The train is about to rumble over the girder bridge spanning Sixteenmile Creek, probably more famous a few miles to the east where it once shared space with the Milwaukee Road through Sixteenmile Canyon. The vantage point for the photo is the long-abandoned grade of the Milwaukee.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 31,212
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.

A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)

Capturing the transition from afternoon light to morning light via the night. Contrasting all shades of light with dark.
